Life is a journey.
Autism – that terrifying word that casts a shadow upon your sunlit life. It obscures the bright future you once envisioned, leaving only darkness and confusion. You feel alone (but you're not), you feel hopeless (but there is hope), you feel fear (but it's an illusion).
Welcome to the Tupelo Autism League. We're the place where families' paths intersect along this strange journey of life. We don't have all the answers, but we do have each other. And we do have some great resources in Tupelo and Northeast Mississippi. We want to celebrate what we have and work to bring even more to our community.
Our short-term goal is to provide an online presence where we can share and support each other. Our long-term goal is to make Tupelo the most autism-friendly city in the world. We want to attract specialists, doctors, therapist and educators to the city to provide free or low-cost services for families with spectrum kids. We also want to educate the public about autism so they'll support our families and children when we frequent the stores, restaurants or parks.
Browse this site, contact our Family Friends, and join us on this strange journey called life.
